This year's Motek from October 4 to 7 in Stuttgart not only marks the 40th anniversary of the event, but also the 60th anniversary of trade fair organizer P.E. Schall. Daniel Schilling spoke to Managing Director Bettina Schall about highlights past and present and the direction in which the trade fair is set to develop.

Speed and precision count in intralogistics. A manufacturer of innovative storage and retrieval systems therefore relies on rack and pinion gears from Leantechnik in its equipment. They enable the high-precision positioning of transport boxes in a supporting structure of stacked load carriers.

ANT Antriebstechnik has significantly expanded its selection of types and variants of worm gear screw jacks and high-speed screw jacks. Together with platform specialist TraceParts, the company is currently developing a CAD-compatible online configurator for design engineers, which will go live at Motek.
Where high voltage is present, every detail counts. Burrs on insulators are therefore not a cosmetic problem. Until now, the burrs had to be removed by hand. A system from the Franconian special machine company Potzi now automates this process as far as possible.

EtherCAT combines the advantages of Ethernet-based communication with the simplicity of classic fieldbus systems.

Maintenance is often constantly in fire-fighting mode. To overcome this, a good maintenance plan is required, which also includes predictive maintenance.

Automation bundles for production logistics
Are you a logistics planner or logistics service provider, a system integrator or plant automation specialist? Do you need conveyor technology for your intra- or distribution logistics? Do you know the needs of the industry very well and want to respond to the high demands by keeping your systems or your customers' systems smart and future-proof?

Smooth running of rolling bearings
On the way to greater energy efficiency, market and technology leaders are increasingly concerned with optimizing their products in terms of friction and wear.
